Advancing Outbreak Detection, Notification, and Response Capacity by Implementing 7-1-7 in Partner CountriesThis funding opportunity supports the strengthening of public health systems in partner countries outside the United States and its territories to achieve the 7-1-7 target—detecting biological threats within seven days, notifying relevant authorities within one day, and initiating a coordinated response within seven days. The initiative advances U.S. global health interests by building sustainable, locally led capacities for outbreak detection, notification, and response, with an emphasis on burden sharing, accountability, and efficiency. Activities include enhancing surveillance infrastructure, expanding laboratory networks, improving cross-sector and cross-border data flow, and strengthening emergency response operations to mitigate health and economic impacts. Implementation is targeted in countries where CDC has an established presence, including Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Kenya, and others, with the ultimate goal of fostering long-term self-reliance and stability in recipient nations. The solicitation, issued as a Notice of Funding Opportunity under CDC-RFA-JG-26-0214, is open for applications through Grants.gov with a deadline of August 14, 2026, and anticipated award start date of September 30, 2026, for a five-year performance period. Applications must be submitted as a cohesive package under a 90-page limit for all appendices and supporting materials, with a cap of 60 pages for the project narrative and one page for the summary. Applicants must demonstrate organizational capacity, past experience, and a robust evaluation and performance measurement plan, with evaluation weighted toward background and approach (35 points) and organizational capacity (35 points), followed by evaluation and performance measurement (30 points). Awards are made through a merit-based trade-off process, not LPTA, and may be influenced by geographic diversity and public health priorities. Recipients must adhere to 2 CFR 200 regulations, submit required financial and performance reports, and comply with CDC’s priorities including transparency and evidence-based practice. Special requirements include providing a detailed organizational chart, resumes for key personnel, an indirect cost agreement if claiming overhead, and a letter to qualify for local partner funding preference, which may yield a 10-point bonus. All applicants must hold an active Unique Entity ID via SAM.gov, and project implementation must occur exclusively outside U.S. borders.

Advanced Development and Validation of Emerging Technologies for Basic and Clinical Cancer Research (R33 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)The National Cancer Institute is soliciting R33 grant applications to support the advanced development and rigorous validation of emerging technologies aimed at advancing cancer research and clinical care. This opportunity is intended for projects that have already addressed major feasibility barriers, as demonstrated by strong preliminary data, but require further refinement, optimization, and technical validation to achieve broad adoption within the scientific community. The focus is on technologies with new or substantially improved capabilities for measuring, analyzing, modeling, or interrogating cancer-related biological systems, including advanced molecular and cellular platforms, multi-omic and spatial profiling methods, next-generation imaging and sensing tools, immuno-engineering approaches, and innovations in biospecimen handling and quality assessment. Proposals must center on cancer-specific applications, and applications that merely apply established technologies to novel biological questions without technological innovation are not eligible. This funding opportunity is part of the NCI’s Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies Program and explicitly prohibits clinical trials. The goal is to accelerate progress in areas such as cancer biology, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, control, and epidemiology by enabling technologies that offer transformative potential for the research community. Projects must demonstrate clear potential for widespread utility in cancer research while maintaining a tight focus on technical advancement rather than application-specific hypotheses. All applications must be submitted through the designated grants portal, and inquiries should be directed to the IMAT Program Contact provided. The opportunity was posted in July 2026 and is open to applicants seeking to bridge the gap between initial innovation and scalable adoption in cancer science.

Multiscale Reasoning For Human Physiology RFIThe Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Biological Technologies Office is seeking input on cutting-edge technologies that enable multiscale reasoning across human physiology through this Request for Information, identified as DARPA-SN-26-100. The focus is on emerging tools including artificial intelligence systems, foundation models, computational frameworks, and datasets capable of integrating biological, physiological, and clinical data across multiple scales—from molecular and cellular levels to organ systems and whole-body responses. The goal is to advance the ability to model, predict, and interpret complex human physiological behavior using AI and data-driven approaches, with interest in non-traditional performers and innovative solutions from industry, academia, government labs, and healthcare organizations. Responses are due by August 10, 2026, and the solicitation falls under NAICS code 541714 for research and development in the physical, engineering, and life sciences. All submissions should be directed to Dr. Roozbeh Jafari, Program Manager at DARPA/BTO, via bioreasoning@darpa.mil. The office is located in Arlington, Virginia, and while no specific place of performance is defined, selected technologies may be developed and evaluated through future DARPA programs. This RFI does not constitute a solicitation for proposals or obligations but aims to inform upcoming funding opportunities in the field of physiological modeling and AI-driven biological insight.
